| Cursed name | scroll of draining |
The scroll of charging restores charges to a chosen stick. A cursed copy is identified as a scroll of draining and empties the stick instead.
Effects and interactions
| BUC state | Result |
|---|---|
| Blessed | Adds 2d10 charges to a selected stick, capped at 99. |
| Uncursed | Adds 1d10 charges to a selected stick, capped at 99. |
| Cursed | Sets a selected stick's charge to 0. |
An uncursed copy prompts for a stick and adds 1d10 charges; a blessed copy adds 2d10, capped at 99. A cursed copy sets the selected stick's charge to 0. Choosing anything other than a stick is rejected.
An uncursed copy identifies itself before target selection. Cancelling or choosing no object leaves every target unchanged but still consumes the scroll.
Strategy
Reserve a blessed copy for a valuable depleted stick because it doubles the charge roll. Identify an unknown copy before exposing a high-charge stick: cursed draining discards all of its remaining charges.
